Let me start by saying I'm no expert fisherman. I've been boat fishing before but hand line fishing is something else. I enjoyed it so much more that fishing with a rod!
The day started at 6am with Sam. Picked up and was straight out...More

Tired of over-priced, mundane cruise excursions? Then you've got to go hand-lining with Samuel. Samuel knows how to show you a wonderful time on the water. He explained the art of hand-lining and then took me to the best fishing holes. I was concerned that...More

There's fishing and then there's hand-lining. If you want to feel every twist and tug from the fish you are bringing to the boat, this will keep the thrills going the whole trip. My kids are boating and water lovers and Sam and Amanda are...More

Hi! We had so much fun going out with them. You can email them anytime with questions. Amanda was great with communication. I really appreciated it before and during our trip. They do pick up from west bay to sandy bay and can arrange pick ups from further away for a fee. They charge $100 per hour for up to 4 people. (Not per person) And they fish about 400 meters from the island. They'll take you out for as little or as long as they want based on hourly rate. You can also ask Amanda about diving. We went out with them a few times and the reef was gorgeous. It was by far the best dives we've ever done. The guide that took us out was so nice, I really feel like we got super lucky to go with them instead of another company. Enjoy your time in beautiful Roatan.
